Motoring in Thailand and Asia Cars and motorbikes in Thailand and Asia, Where to buy and sell your truck? Where to get fixed and what garage to use. Should I buy a suzuki carry? Will it have a car DVD? Will my travel insurance cover me for driving in Thailand? Or should I just buy a Mercedes or a Honda CRV? Everything to do with motoring and vehicles goes in this section. Do I really need a driving licence in Thailand to drive to Bangkok car hire?

How long is it valid for as I need to get one for 6 weeks time and am just wondering if I should do it now or later.

I thought it was around 6 months or something - don't you need to own your car outright as well?

Well I can confirm that Mr Nawty has well and truly been on the road and as of tonight made Ubon and dropped in for a few pizzas.

As much as I hate to say it he is a lovely bloke and I am looking forward to meeting him and his family and the pool tomorrow with my kids for a bit of a splash.

Shucks......I have never been called a lovely bloke before.

I can confimr that Memock is also....a lovely bloke.

As for the car passport....got it at the border, after the office had closed. Think we paid a premium for it, but what the hell as the convenience was good and we travelled across.
